Abstract
There is provided an image processing apparatus. A line segment detecting unit detects line segments from an image. An obtainment unit obtains distance information indicating a distance in a depth direction of the image. A selecting unit selects a line segment for vanishing point detection from the line segments detected by the line segment detecting unit. A vanishing point detecting unit detects a vanishing point of the image on a basis of the line segment for vanishing point detection. For each line segment detected by the line segment detecting unit, the selecting unit selects the line segment in a case where the distance indicated by the distance information is in a monotonically changing trend along the line segment.
